I recon it is, but, I know you NEVER EVER can be sure of the clients environment. So have you ever encountered a browser that doesn't supports the arrow keys for scrolling the page both horisontally and vertically?

I also think selected form elements and flash objects disables the scroll, but is that always the case?

(This question is for a JS game, not an ordinary web page if someone should wonder)

True that. The habit when using a Wiimote is to drag when navigating menus and browsing, seldom click. I guess I should give an alternate way to scroll anyway, ie through buttons or other widget. — Jens Hedqvist over 8 years ago
